As you can see, I have taken it upon myself to create the characters already... For the most part. My reasoning for this is simply because I had a semi-plot in my mind that I wanted to use but it required somewhat set backgrounds in order to make sense. I know a lot of people don't really like to play characters that are already formed but honestly it isn't as bad as one might think. You still have the ability to change them slightly because of the time that has passed and add to their background if you'd like, you still can play them as you would a character you made on your own, and you can still enjoy it just as much. I tried to make the characters diverse but due to my plot idea they're all pretty damaged. Basically all you have to do now is copy and paste the ONE character you wish to play's bio and that's really all. Once the role play starts, everyone will already be arriving in Maui and from there they will all meet at the Fairmont Hotel there and carry out our stay. Most likely, some form of event will occur that is going to stop everyone from leaving for awhile (we can discuss this event in the OOC because I'm drawing a blank as to what this could be). I decided against putting rules up since I'm designating this an Advanced role play hoping that those of you who join know the site rules already and have a good concept of what is and isn't acceptable in general terms. My only big rule is that I don't want to see sad little paragraphs for characters.. I'd much rather see detailed posts. So, basically, don't give the rest of us four sentences to work with when we're giving you much more. Otherwise, have fun and get creative!






Female Roles


tumblr_lm6kca07rU1qi6fbuo1_500.gif


| Name: Olivia Forester | Age: 24 | FC: Amber Heard | Roleplayer: oOBubblesOo |

Traits: + Sweet, Compassionate, Honest; - Stubborn, Indecisive, Emotional

Background: Olivia was raised in a single parent home with no siblings. She doesn't talk much about her history with anyone besides her best friend, Lydia. Having grown up in North Carolina, she had known most of the others for quite some time before high school. Olivia was in a committed relationship with Jesse for four years; throughout their entire high school career. Their relationship was off and on and very rocky considering Jesse's issues. During their senior year, Olivia told Jesse she was pregnant and though they were happy, at first, things went wrong. After a huge fight the day after graduation, Olivia made the decision to have an abortion. It had taken everything in her power to force herself to do so and she immediately regretted it. Ever since then, she has avoided seeing Jesse and has a very hard time emotionally. She has slowly become somewhat unstable and has refused to get into any other relationships since Jesse. Olivia still loves Jesse with her all and, though she tries to hide it, she would do anything to have him back in her life. Olivia still currently lives in Raleigh, North Carolina.

| Name: Lydia Connell | Age: 24 | FC: Holland Roden | Roleplayer: LittleWolfie |

Traits: + Intelligent, Open-Minded, Caring; - Sarcastic, Insecure, Needy

Background: Lydia was raised by both her mother and father with two siblings in the same household. Lydia and Olivia had been best friends since elementary school and she considered her to be the closest of them group. However, throughout Olivia and Jesse's relationship, Lydia felt she was put on the back burner and began spending more time with Lola and Amara on her own. The three grew much closer over time despite their conflicting personalities. Lydia received exemplary grades all through her schooling career but she found herself time and time again putting her needs on hold for her family and friends. Just before graduation, Lydia's parents divorced and moved apart. Lydia managed to keep her grades up but slowly started to become more detached from her friends at the time. After graduation, Lydia moved to Princeton, New Jersey to live with her mother and continue her education at Princeton University.

| Name: Lola Marx | Age: 25 | FC: Ashley Benson | Roleplayer: Allina Auburn |

Traits: + Adventurous, Quick-Witted, Sociable; - Promiscuous, Rude, Impulsive

Background: Lola was raised by her mother and stepfather until the age of ten. At ten years old, Lola exposed to her teacher that her stepfather had been sexually abusing her. At first, nobody believed her, including her mother. Two years later, she expressed this once more to her counselor and after doing a thorough investigation they discovered the truth. Her stepfather has since been sent to prison, her mother still refusing to believe the situation and quickly moving closer to the facility he was being held in once Lola was taken by social services. During her high school years, Lola began acting out of pure hurt and became sexually active very early. Most people at school simply considered her a slag but her friends knew the truth and they tried to do all they could to help her see past her history and quit forcing herself to act out this way. Lola's closest friend of the group, Amara, helped her the most and without her Lola would not have made it through graduation without being expelled or possibly even worse. Lola kept in touch the least with everyone because she felt ashamed that she had not taken their advice and now continues to do more drugs and practice other unsafe behaviors. She now lives in Rochester, Minnesota.

| Name: Amara Reed | Age: 25 | FC: Shay Mitchell | Roleplayer: LifeNovel |

Traits: + Independent, Decisive, Confident; - Blunt, Stubborn, Impatient

Background: Amara grew up with two younger brothers and her mother. From her childhood through high school, she did only average in school but was usually treated quite kindly by everyone. Her mother was a travel agent who found more time for that and men then her children so she was rarely around, leaving Amara to care for her brothers alone. She started working at the age of fourteen, getting paid under the table in order to help take care of needs not being met by her mother. Living this sort of lifestyle, Amara had learned to be very self-sufficient and she refuses to let people treat her to anything or pay for anything that she is responsible for. Through high school, Amara became closest with Lola, which surprised them both honestly. Amara graduated with only an average GPA which threw her ideas of better schooling out the window. Still having to care for her siblings, she remained in Raleigh for four years after graduation. Only then was she able to move to Santa Cruz, California as she had always wished.
